The Long Time Now

T Bone Burnett

8

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for the long time now

I can hear the footsteps

Following behind me

Trying to find me

But when I turn around

I can't see where the path goes

Into the shadows

Into the shadows

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for the long time now

I can hear you breathing

Whispering in my ear

There is nothing to fear

But when I turn around

As I see the trees bow

I only hear the wind blow

By mistake I felt alone

In my heart I've always known

You'd be there to bring me home

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for a long, long time

I been waiting for the long time now
